115 NPT's did well for my sons in there 257AI's on them, I would have gone with the 120's but they have killed every thing with the 115's, lopes, deer, black bear, and told me not to argue with success! Need a gun barer??

If i was going to use my 257 on elk id probably go with a 115/120 partition too. Id use whichever of the two shot the best in my gun. It surely will get the job done.
